You are required to complete two simple steps before you arrive, using Blackboard, the University's student portal (Before 21st December 2018):

Check and amend your Personal Details

Upload a photo for your ID card.

Step 1 - Getting Started and Your Personal Details

All new students accessing Blackboard for the first time need to change their default password to one of their choice. Information on how to do this can be found by clicking the Getting Started Leaflet link which is found at the end of Step 2.

Updating Your Personal Details

Once you have accessed Blackboard, you need to click on the ‘Personal Details’ section on your Blackboard homepage.

You need to check and amend the details we currently hold on our system for you. You must then read the Privacy Notice, confirm you have done this and submit your details as directed. Once you have done this, you will receive email confirmation.

Step 2 - Photo ID

You are required to upload a photo so that we can produce your ID card in advance, ready for you to collect at your Enrolment Event.

Uploading Your Photo

Please follow the steps in the Getting Started leaflet below. Once you have done this, you will receive email confirmation.

The Student Charter is produced in partnership with the University & the Student Union. The Student Charter provides details of the clear rights and responsibilities of staff and students.
